Does Linode Have Native DoS protection?

I was wondering if Linode has DoS protection integrated or someone would have to use something like cloudflare or a CDN

Hi @spyderweb! We do have DoS protections in place, you can read more about them here:

However, for layer 7 DoS attacks towards a web server I'd recommend Cloudflare or mod_evasive for an additional layer of protection.
